Early morning mindful paddle and meditation with Brandon Gugala.

The mantra “Flow don’t force” becomes the practice. How we balance on the board, the way in which paddle, how we breathe and the thought experience that comes along with.

Brandon is an avid outdoorsman and waterman since his childhood where he grew up on Watkins Lake in Waterford and spent fall and winter in Noethen Michigan back country camping and hunting. As a certified back country guide, certified SUP instructor, 500hr RYT, and fitness expert Brandon brings a varied skill set to the table. And you’ll feel that as you learn some basic technique and safety of paddling before heading on for a serene session in the water.
